Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
Are Wildcoats real winter coats?
Do bears sh*t in the woods? Short answer – heck yea Wildcoats are real winter coats.
Weatherproof and designed to shred the mountains (plus maximum snack-storing-ability across seven pockets) — this bear is made to be your go-to winter coat.
Not to mention these babies are warm. Like really, really, ridiculously warm (in a good way).
What are they made of? Is it real fur?
For the love of Berenstain, no! We love animals and use 100% synthetic materials in all of our coats and hoods.

Will they hold up to skiing/snowboarding?
We are ski bums at heart, so we prioritized FUNCTION while creating Wildcoat.
The hood stays up even when you’re ripping down a groomer, and the active fit combined with the 2-way zip allows for free flowin’ movement on any terrain.
Can the hood be worn with/without a helmet?
Yes! Designed to be worn with a brain-bucket on the slopes (smart bears protect their noggin) or sans-helmet out on the town.
Our three-point hood cord system allows for 360˚ of free-flowin’ comfort no matter the occasion — all discreetly hidden within low profile fur pockets.
Are Wildcoats warm?
We are not exaggerating when we say each Wildcoat has the temperature rating of an actual bear.
If you tend to run hot (especially while skiing) we recommend simply wearing a long-sleeve tee under your bear (probably this one). Adjust accordingly for those springtime turns, and maybe ditch the ski pants for some short-shorts.
What are the sizes? How do they run?
All Wildcoats are unisex with sizes ranging from 2XS to 3XL.
Our coats are designed to be on the roomy side to allow for layers on the mountain on those bitter cold days.
The sleeves are also slightly extended to allow for winter gloves to be worn under the mittens.
Check our Size Guide to determine your perfect fit.

No ski? No problem. What else can I do with my Wildcoat?
Wildcoats were designed with snow sports in mind, but you can rock this beautiful, beastly coat anywhere.
Camping? Yes, just don’t forget to double stack your s’mores.
Festivals? Fur sure.
Out on the town? Pics or it didn’t happen.
Cuddled up with boo on the couch? Obviously, bear cuddles > all.
How do I clean / maintain my Wildcoat? Does the fur get wet on the slopes?
We gotchu covered! Check out our full care guide here.
What's the warranty on my Wildcoat?
These aren’t your average show-bears (and wolves)! Our coats and hoods are designed to be used on the mountain, and are built to withstand the regular demands of the winter season. Wear and tear will happen, especially around frequently used areas of the coat. However we’re happy to assist with any extraneous craftsmanship or material failures.
Please email Teddy@wildcoat.com with a lil description + pics of your coat should your Wildcoat have any issues!
